When we ask our students why they love Pacific, there's an excellent chance that they'll mention the fact that their friends have become family. If a close-knit community of scholars and leaders is what you're looking for, Pacific has you covered. Opportunities to get involved, have fun and make a difference are as rich and diverse as the breakfast burrito combos at the Marketplace!
Ready to begin your journey to Pacific? You're in the right place. Choose your application to get started or to finish one you're already worked on. If you have questions about your application, our Admission team is happy to help!
The best way to explore our campus is to see it for yourself. We’ve collaborated with some of our students to create a virtual tour video to help you get to know Pacific, or if 360-degree views and photos are more your thing, embark on our virtual tour. But the best way to experience Pacific is to take an in-person campus tour!
While our counselors are always happy to help, sometimes there are questions you'd rather ask fellow students. We get it — and we encourage you to get the ZeeMee app to chat with current Tigers and newly admitted students like yourself. Don't forget to also follow Admissions on social media to get a glimpse at life at Pacific!

“Pacific's location is quite nice for a lot of reasons. For entertainment, there's a mall, movie theaters, a bowling alley, and a theater for fun live shows nearby. Not to mention all of the good, diverse restaurants to try around Stockton.”

"Going to college in Stockton is perfect because my friends and I can take a quick drive to spend an afternoon at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, then spend the next weekend hiking in Yosemite!"

What attracted our students to Pacific? Maybe it's the sense of community they feel almost immediately — a common sentiment among our Tigers! Don't take our word for it — watch the Tiger Perspectives series to hear from them!
We caught up with alum Matt Camino, now Pacific's Director of E-Commerce, as heads to the Pacific Card office then to one of his favorite spots on campus. We talk about his favorite UOP memories (hint: You’ll love learning about the Orange Army) and whether he prefers Apple or Android, and get some great advice for our Tigers.
The fun never stops at University of the Pacific! Residential Life and Housing offers all of the amenities a student could ever want -- weekly events, game lounges, a swimming pool and barbecue grills, common rooms and more!
Build connections with fellow Tigers that will last a lifetime
